Hi guys. I know I have been gone for like… forever! This school thing takes all my time.. but I want to blog again.. so I thought I would tell you about my skincare routine lately..
My skins history is SO complicated.. I used to have really bad skin when I was younger (like 15,16) and when I started on the pill it got a bit better. Then it got a lot worse with acne when I had my final year at high school (examns, teenage drama and bad eating habits)
The last three years I my skin has been SO DRY. I don’t know what happend, but dryness was the big problem. My skin basically cracked on my nose and on my forehead. I thought it was because of my HORRIBLE foundation (L’oreal True Match, still don’t like it)
But then I checked out skincare online.. I did not have a lot of money, so I bought cheap skincare like Garnier and Nivea. My sensitive and dry skin did not like that at all.
Now, I think I have found what works best for me and my weird skin!
Makeup Removers:
I saw that my skin changed when I changed from makeup wipes to a oil based makeup remover. I love both of these, at the moment I use the Lancome one. My face feel really clean after I use these two, they are amazing.
Cleansing:
After the makeup remover I will use a little bit of the Clinique liquid facial soap, to get some of the oiliness of my face. And when my face is dry I will tone with this Lumene toner (which I just run out of, sad) This makes my skin feel CLEAN and refresh without making my skin feel dry.
Moisture:
I use both of these, it depends which is in the top of my drawer. Both of these are pretty light moisturizers. The Clinique one is gel and the Lumene one is a regular cream. What I love about these is that they absorb really fast and give a lot of hydration.
Intensive Treatment:
I love the Glamglow thirstymud! I know it is really expensive (I got mine for free, bonus points) but I think it is worth it. This is amazing if you got some dry patches. I just put a bit on my dry patches when I sleep and the skin looks so much better when I wake up. When I don’t have dry patches I sleep with the Dermalogica intensive moisture balance on my whole face. This smells like CRAP, but is a seriously amazing cream!
Eye cream:
This is the only eye cream I use. I love it, absorbs fast and makes my dry undereyes feel great. I think eye cream is very individual, I have tried many. This is my favourite and I use it before concealer too.
Mask:
I am not oily, but as every other human on the planet РI have pores. I use these masks once a week, just to refresh the skin. The JorgOb̩ is a peel of mask, it works great on the nose and forhead. Do not use it on the cheeks, it pulls the hairs of your face. The Garnier one I use before I shower because when you rinse off it will become a scrub. It just makes my face feel nice and smooth.
I hope this was useful to you if you have the same kind of skin as me. If you want me do to makeup for dry skin, please comment, I would love to share the products that works for  me.
Love, Kristine
